The formal basic courses required for the doctoral degree are arranged by the University of Turku and Åbo Akademi University. Research programmes organise special courses in their field of research as well as seminars and journal clubs for students. National and international courses and scientific meetings can also be used as a part of formal graduate studies. The formal requirements for the degree are specified in the study guide for doctoral studies which can be found on the www-page of the Faculty of Medicine.
